I forgot to tell you in the first chapter but like all of my fanfics Hilary has a white blade and a bitbeast called Phendrano that I can't be bothered to describe.

Oh yeah, and Steve is an OC

Anyway...


That Night

Hilary's POV

I know how he feels about me. I just can't feel the same way, I would if I could but there's something stopping me. I can't cheat and I don't want Steve to… No! I can't think of that. But still…

Flashback

She was standing with a group of girls at school chatting. They were talking about a boy in their class who was referred to as 'the suicidal one'. Even by some of the teachers. Everyone at school thought he was creepy, all accept one. Him and Hilary had been seeing each other for a few weeks but no one else knew. She knew he was normal, only because she was the one who kept him alive. Once she had found out he liked her he told her that if she left him he'd kill himself, making her watch, and would do the same if he found she was cheating on him.

End Flashback

Normal POV

She was lying on her bed in her room looking up. She pulled one of her pillows over her face. Her phone suddenly rang. She sighed and answered it.

"Talk to me," she said into it.

"He's using you," came a female reply.

"What?" Hilary asked, confused.

"Steve, I mean, he can't say that to you cuz it's just mean, and we all know you like Kai…" she was interrupted.

"What the bloody hell are you on about?" she asked, even more confused.

"Oh crap, shouldn't have said that," the person on the end said.

"Crystal, slow down," she told her. "How do you know about this?"

"Oh… um… I have my ways…"

"You were spying on me!" Hilary asked, slightly shocked and angry.

"Yeah, well, you were late for the party and I wondered where you were." Crystal was searching hopelessly for an excuse.

"It was pretty obvious where I was considering where I told you I was gonna be before the party," she told her angrily.

"Oh come on," Crystal argued. "Does that bit matter? What are you going to do about Steve and Kai?"

"No idea," she commented. "What are my options again?"

"Well," Crystal began, clearing her throat. "Turn down Kai, guilty feeling inside but Steve won't commit suicide, hurting Kai and maybe you. Or, go out with Kai, the press will find out, it'll go up on the news, thereby hurting you, him, and Steve. Steve will be dead but I'm sure you'd get over it, and you'd still have Kai."

"I asked you my options to narrow it down," she told her. "Thanks for the help."

"No need for sarcasm," Crystal told her. "I don't believe you, you get the attention of a popular yet stone cold hearted boy, with no flirting, not that I'm aware of anyway. You don't wear make-up, you don't make yourself noticed. How do you do it?"

"If I knew, I'd tell you," Hilary told her in a bored tone of voice.

"Anyway, if I were you I'd take the risk," Crystal told her.

"What? Are you crazy?" she asked, sitting up.

"No, unless it's hereditary," she replied.

"Right… Why would you take the risk?" she asked.

"Well, if you're careful Steve won't find out so I'd say it's worth taking the risk," she replied. " And we all know you like Kai, it's pretty obvious. But it's your choice."

"How can something not true be obvious?" she asked.

"Well, if you don't I'm sure he likes you," she replied.

"Well, if he asked me out it's pretty obvious," she told her, a hint of anger in her voice.

"How do you know that he was going to?" she asked.

"You saw his reaction better than I did, it was so obvious he would have done if I hadn't gotten that call," she told her.

"So let's see if we can go back in time and turn your phone off or something," she told her sarcastically.

"Look." Hilary sighed. "Forget it. It's my problem. Gotta go meet Steve now anyway."

"Bubi. Have fun."

"Bye." She then hung up and lay back. She moaned and then eventually went downstairs.

'At least it can't get any worse,' she thought. 'Well, unless Steve just so happened to have said the same thing to another girl.' She thought. 'Not likely.'

Plz R&R!
